The Gaia mission

T. Prusti, +624 more
TL;DR: Gaia as discussed by the authors is a cornerstone mission in the science programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). The spacecraft construction was approved in 2006, following a study in which the original interferometric concept was changed to a direct-imaging approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

First result from the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station: precision measurement of the positron fraction in primary cosmic rays of 0.5-350 GeV.

M. Aguilar, +347 more
TL;DR: The very accurate data show that the positron fraction is steadily increasing from 10 to ∼ 250 GeV, but, from 20 to 250 GeV, the slope decreases by an order of magnitude, showing the existence of new physical phenomena.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precision Measurement of the Proton Flux in Primary Cosmic Rays from Rigidity 1 GV to 1.8 TV with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station

M. Aguilar, +294 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a precise measurement of the proton flux in primary cosmic rays with rigidity (momentum/charge) from 1.GV to 1.8TV is presented based on 300 million events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gaia Data Release 2: Observational Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams

C. Babusiaux, +451 more
TL;DR: In this article, the power of the Gaia DR2 in studying many fine structures of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD) was highlighted, depending in particular on stellar population selections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Introducing the CTA concept

B. S. Acharya, +982 more
TL;DR: The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) as discussed by the authors is a very high-energy (VHE) gamma ray observatory with an international collaboration with more than 1000 members from 27 countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and North and South America.
